Publisher's Summary

Lhind has been on the run all her life. Stealing what she needs, using magic for disguise, she never stays anywhere long. Lhind even has secrets from herself, for she has few memories, and those are troubling. But life is good until she gets caught by Rajanas the warrior-prince, Thianra the bard, and Hlanan the scribe. And that’s when adventure begins, because someone very powerful wants them all dead. As they evade pursuit and work to uncover their enemies, Lhind struggles with the invisible bonds of friendship and trust, while Hlanan begins uncovering her secrets one by one. This romantic fantasy adventure will appeal to fans of A Posse of Princesses.

Story

Disappointing

First let me say I have enjoyed many of Sherwood Smith's other books, especially the Inda series. Lhind's plot, pacing, and characters are sadly lacking, even for a YA book. The narration was fair--helped me get through it. Please try Inda
